Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for ejecting an object removably linked to a structure.
  • the objects intended to be ejected from said structure by said device are in particular microsatellites which can carry technical equipment for scientific purposes, for example, and which are then launched from satellites according to a predetermined trajectory allowing them to reach a desired orbit or a specific objective by following a ballistic phase.
  • the device according to the invention can be used in other fields as soon as an object, whether it is of the scientific or military type, etc. .., must be ejected along a trajectory from a structure which can be that of an aircraft, a ship, a vehicle or a ground station.
  • the document EP-A-0 454 545 by the applicant teaches a device for separating and ejecting an object capable of being subjected to a longitudinal speed and to a speed of longitudinal rotation or of rolling around the axis of said object, given, to allow the ballistic phase of the object according to the predetermined trajectory.
  • the device comprises a cylinder and sliding piston assembly respectively linked to the structure and to the object.
  • First means produced in the form of a pyrotechnic charge are housed in said assembly to allow the object to be ejected, by the sliding piston, according to the longitudinal speed, and second means produced in the form of a helical ramp print to the object, via said piston then rotating, its longitudinal speed of rotation.
  • the piston moves from a retracted position to an extended position against a stop and, simultaneously with its displacement stroke, it is rotated by its connection, by means of a finger, with the helical ramp.
  • the object disengages from the device with a longitudinal speed and a speed of rotation along a predetermined trajectory to then be placed in ballistic phase.
  • FR-A-491 489 teaches a device of the type described in the preamble of claim 1 comprising elastic means capable of ejecting the object and putting it in rotation about its axis. As in the previous case, the longitudinal and rotary speeds printed on the object are also linked to each other.
  • the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks and relates to a device for ejecting an object detachably linked to a structure, the design of which avoids the use of a pyrotechnic charge, makes the longitudinal speeds and rolls imprinted on the object, and allow the longitudinal speed to be adjusted in flight.
  • the use of two separate elastic means for imparting to the object a longitudinal speed and a longitudinal rotation or roll speed makes it possible, on the one hand, to reduce the costs of manufacture and of s to overcome the problems inherent in the aging of powders used as pyrotechnic charge and, on the other hand, to be able to determine the two speeds independently of one another.
  • said first elastic means are defined by a cylindrical compression spring housed in said assembly between the cylinder and the piston
  • said second elastic means are defined by an angularly spiral action spring connecting said sliding piston to said object.
  • the device further comprises controllable adjustment means for the stroke of said sliding piston with respect to the cylinder, associated with said assembly and acting on said first elastic means.
  • controllable adjustment means for the stroke of said sliding piston with respect to the cylinder, associated with said assembly and acting on said first elastic means.
  • an intermediate piece is advantageously provided on which said object is capable of being fixedly mounted, and which is connected to said second elastic means and to its locking mechanism.
  • This part acts as an interface to be directly biased in rotation by the second elastic means and ejected longitudinally with said object by the piston pushed by the first elastic means.
  • Said controllable locking mechanism of said first elastic means may comprise a rod which is fixed coaxially to the bottom of said cylinder at one of its ends and whose other end passes through said piston and is widened, in an oblong fashion, to project relative to an opening of substantially corresponding shape made in said intermediate piece, so that, when said second elastic means are prestressed, said enlarged end and said opening are angularly offset, the piston being maintained in the retracted position compressing said first elastic means, and that, when said second elastic means are released, by means of their controllable locking mechanism, said opening, by the rotation of said part, is superimposed on said enlarged end of the rod allowing the part to pass through it, and the ejection of said object, by means of didi t piston in the extended position under the action of said first elastic means.
  • controllable locking mechanism of said second elastic means may for example comprise at least one retractable finger immobilizing said rotating part when said second elastic means are prestressed.
  • said part is mounted on an annular plate while being connected thereto in rotation but axially free, said second elastic means respectively connecting said plate to the transverse face of said piston, and said locking mechanism acting, by its retractable finger, on the pan to keep it fixed in rotation with said part, when the second elastic means are prestressed.
  • a first needle or ball stop is interposed between the transverse face of said piston and said plate, and a second needle or ball stop is interposed between the compression spring and the transverse face of said piston.
  • the first stop ensures optimal rotation of the plate, when the spiral spring relaxes, and further reduces friction as much as possible.
  • the second stop it also reduces the friction of the spring on the piston which tends to turn when it relaxes.
  • said adjustment means comprise a screw-nut mechanism housed coaxially in said assembly, said screw being linked to the bottom of said cylinder to cooperate with a drive member, while said nut is guided coaxially in said piston, by so that, when said screw is rotated by said drive member, said nut moves along said piston to determine its stroke which corresponds to that of said cylindrical compression spring.
  • said screw of the adjustment mechanism is hollow and concentrically surrounds the rod of the locking mechanism of said first elastic means.
  • the lateral skirt of said piston, sliding in said cylinder is provided with lateral grooves with which said nut cooperates.
  • a damping element is further arranged on said nut, making it possible to absorb the contact of the piston with said nut when it abuts, at the end of its travel, against said nut.
  • Figure 1 shows, in cut away perspective, an embodiment of said ejection device according to the invention.
  • Figure 2 is an axial section of said device of Figure 1 in its initial position, for which said first and second means for ejecting and rotating said object are locked.
  • Figures 3 and 4 are respectively cross-sectional views along lines III-III and IV-IV of Figure 2.

  • the ejection device 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, is intended to ensure the launching of an object A, as defined previously, from a structure S which may be that of a satellite, of an aircraft, etc ...
  • the ejection device 1 comprises in particular an assembly 2 with cylinder 3 and sliding piston 4, first means 5 for ejecting said object A, by sliding of said piston 4 by a retracted position to an extended position, and second means 6 for rotating said object A around its axis of symmetry which coincides with the axis XX of said assembly 2 when the object is fixed thereto.
  • the side wall 3A of the cylinder passes through a passage S1 formed in the structure S, to be applied to the latter by radial lugs 3B provided at the end 3C opposite the bottom 3D of the cylinder.
  • Clamping members not shown but symbolized by their geometric axes, secure the cylinder to the structure.
  • the piston 4 is housed in the cylinder 3 and its cylindrical side skirt 4A slides, in this embodiment, along the side wall 3A of the cylinder, while its transverse face 4B comes substantially flush with the free end 3C of the cylinder, when it occupies the retracted position.
  • the first and second elastic means 5 and 6 for ejecting and rotating the object A are elastic and they are defined, in this embodiment, respectively by a cylindrical compression spring 5A and by a spiral angular action spring 6A.
  • the spring 5A is housed in the assembly 2 and it bears axially against the bottom 3D of the cylinder by its end 5B and against the transverse face 4B of the piston by its end 5C.
  • the spring 6A is, in turn, arranged concentrically with the axis XX, between the transverse face 4B of the piston 4 and the object A. As shown in FIGS.
  • the spring 6A is linked, to one from its ends 6B, to the transverse face 4B of the piston by a fixing element 7 and, at the other end 6C, to a plate 8 in the form of an annular disc, connected to the object A by an intermediate piece 9.
  • a fastening element 7 secures this other end to said plate.
  • Controllable locking mechanisms 10 and 11 maintain the springs 5A and 6A in a prestressed state for which the energy stored by each of them is maximum.
  • the controllable locking mechanism 10 of the compression spring 5A comprises, in this particular embodiment, a rod 12 arranged coaxially in the assembly 2 and cooperating, by the locking proper, with the intermediate piece 9 which associates the object A audit set 2, as will be seen later.
  • the rod 12 is fixed at its end 12A, which is also threaded, to the 3D bottom of the cylinder by a nut 14, while its other end 12B crosses the transverse face 4B, then annular, of the piston to open into the intermediate part 9 serving as 'interface between the object A and the assembly 2.
  • the end 12B of the rod is widened, in an oblong fashion, and engages in an opening 9A of substantially corresponding shape, formed in the intermediate piece.
  • FIG. 5A On the perspective of the part 9, shown partially and in isolation in FIG. 5A, we see the opening 9A substantially oblong, while, in FIG. 5B, we have illustrated the enlarged and oblong end 12B of the rod, engaged in the opening 9A to be applied by its opposite edges 12C to complementary and opposite receiving surfaces 9B opening into the oblong opening 9A of the part, perpendicular to its large dimension.
  • the opening 9A and the enlarged end 12B are angularly offset from one another by ⁇ / 2, the part 9, carrying said object A, is locked axially, as shown in Figures 1, 2 and 5B.
  • this intermediate piece 9 which has a cylindrical configuration
  • its connection with the object A is carried out simply by screwing a threaded axial end piece 9C thereof in a tapped hole A1 provided in the base (or the base ) A2 of the object, which base is applied to a flange 9D of the part.
  • the controllable locking mechanism 11 of the spring 6A consists of a retractable finger 15 connected for example to an electromagnet 16 fixed to a radial tab of the cylinder.
  • This finger 15 cooperates with a notch 8A formed at the periphery of the annular plate 8, which supports the intermediate part 9.
  • axial pins 17 are integral with the plate 8 and engage in corresponding holes 9E provided in the part, which ensures the connection in rotation with the plate, but axially free by the pins 17.
  • the ejection device 1 of the invention comprises means 18 for adjusting the stroke of said sliding piston 4 relative to the cylinder 3, which stroke consequently corresponds to the extension stroke of the spring 5A and, therefore, to the energy which it is capable of transmitting to the piston and to the speed of ejection thereof. Thanks to this, the longitudinal speed of ejection of said object A can be modified during flight, if necessary, and adapted to the circumstances so as to change the trajectory of the object.
  • controllable adjustment means 18 are, in this embodiment, constituted by a screw-nut mechanism 19,20 housed in the cylinder 3.
  • the screw 19 of the mechanism is hollow and concentrically surrounds the rod 12.
  • the end lower 19A of the screw is pivotally mounted in the 3D bottom of the cylinder, while its upper end 19B is close to the enlarged end 12B of the rod.
  • a toothing 19C is formed at the periphery of the lower end 19A of the screw and it cooperates with a pinion 21A of a drive motor 21 associated with the 3D bottom of the cylinder.
  • the nut 20 of the mechanism is mounted, which is provided with radial fins 20A, which are introduced into corresponding lateral grooves 4C formed in an internal lateral skirt 4D of the piston.
  • the compression spring 5A is then located between the two external concentric side skirts 4A and internal 4D. The height of the grooves 4C then conditions the extreme high and low positions likely to be occupied by the nut 20 and, therefore, the stroke of the piston between its retracted position and its extended position.
  • the operation of the device 1 takes place as follows. First of all, it is recalled that the springs 5A and 6A are prestressed and locked by their respective mechanisms 10 and 11, and that the stroke of the piston 4 is maximum, it being understood that one can intervene thereon at any time by the controllable adjustment means 18 for modifying the trajectory of the object A.
  • the electromagnet 16 is controlled so that the finger 15, then engaged in the notch of the plate 8, retracts from the latter. At this time, since the plate 8 is no longer linked to the finger 15, it is rotated under the action of the spring 6A which expands angularly by releasing the energy stored.
  • the intermediate piece 9 linked in rotation by the pins 17 of the plate 8 is simultaneously driven in rotation, as is the object A screwed onto the piece.
  • a needle stop 22 is provided between the rotary plate 8 and the transverse face 4B of the piston. The angular velocity of the object A is thus achieved.
  • the part 9 At the end of the angular travel, the part 9 is in an angular position for which its opening 9A is then superimposed on the enlarged end 12B of the fixed rod 12, as shown in FIG. 8A. Consequently, the mechanism 10 of the first elastic means 5 is unlocked, allowing the free passage of the part 9 through the enlarged end 12B of the rod through its opening 9A, as shown in FIG. 8B.
  • the cylindrical spring 5A released axially by the superposition of the opening 9A and the enlarged end 12B, suddenly relaxes by releasing its energy and pushes the piston 4 axially from its retracted position to its extended position. The longitudinal movement of the object A is then carried out. The ejection device 1 then occupies its final position shown in FIG. 6.
  • the object A, to which the intermediate piece 9 is fixed, is thus driven by a longitudinal ejection speed and a longitudinal rotation speed and separates naturally from the device and in particular from the guide pins 17, to follow the trajectory defined.
  • the embodiment of the ejection device 1 ′ differs from the previous one in that the passage of the force is carried out at the center of gravity of the object A ′.
  • the advantages which result therefrom are taught in particular by document EP-A-0 454 545 and, in particular, such an arrangement considerably reduces the parasitic speed of transverse rotation, which appears when lever arms exist between the passage of the force. and the center of gravity of the object then distant.
  • the enlarged end 12B ′ of the rod 12 ′ extends to the vicinity of the center of gravity of the object A ′, so that this also requires the intermediate piece 9 ′ to be extended correspondingly so that its opening oblong 9A 'cooperates with the end 12B' of the rod.
  • the passage of the force to maintain the compressed spring 5A ' is carried out at the center of gravity of the object A', the latter being "pinched" between the rod 12 'and the part 9', while in the unlocked position, the longitudinal thrust is provided by the part 9 'at the center of gravity of the object A'.
